Hello, I’m doing some research on making a digital imaging program,
specifically for photos. I was going to use SDL but I also needed a GUI.
What would be a good portable GUI to use? paraGUI looked nice but it’s
all in C++ which I would like to avoid as the rest of the project is in
C. Also, can I make two windows with one SDL application? So I can have
controls and buttons in one window and the image in another? Thanks.–

One of the best portable GUIs I’ve found is wxWindows. Though it is
C++, I think it has some major advantages because it maintains the
native look-and-feel of the OS it runs on.
But I’ve heard it was slower to the native library although the API is cross
platform.
I’ve tried it on my old Pentium MMX 166 with 32 Mb RAM ( I know the machine
was real far obsolete, but I just wanted to made a point; the native one
still run fine for this machine ; - > )
